Lyrics

[You see cause I want to do something they can follow that
You see that was my idea of a dramatic moment
But if you want more
That's all right with me
But i'm just gonna figure
I gotta do something that can

I'll do a few here and then I'll get out of here
I'll probably come back in about a six months to a year
For next time I'll probably do a tour of more than just London

Ireland? yeah, I almost did it this time
There's a gig that almost took place in Dublin
But I just couldn't arrange it in the schedule this time
But no, I intend to
Ireland

In any case, let's make it short and street
So I'll just
I'll do more]

Good night folks

I'm about seventeen
Yeah, I read what the calendar said
But my heart is not yet dead
In fact, I just happened on the scene
And since I wake up like I do

Chasing his first girl
What do numbers mean?
I'm about seventeen

Seventeen seventeen
